The radiator keeps cracking in the same spot.
SOURCE: replace the radiator in my 99 jeep cherokee
call the dealer and give them your vin number they can tell you.
SOURCE: My 2002 Jeep Liberty 3.7 liter is leaking coolant
The Drain Plug aka Radiator Drain **** has an o-ring on it that does wear-out over time, causing a leak. You can remove and replace these relatively ease. They only turn 1/4th to 1/3rd Counterclockwise to Open and Clockwise to Close. Work on only when the engine is cool. Leave the cap on the radiator to create a suction, decreasing the amount of radiator fluid you will lose. OR drain the Radiator Fluid into a clean container and save for reuse.
Have the new Radiator Drain **** ready for immediately insertion after removing the other leaking Radiator Drain ****. To Remove:
Twist the Radiator Drain **** counterclockwise and pull, continuing to twist counterclockwise removing it.
Immediately install the new Radiator Drain **** by first pushing in and then twisting clockwise to close.

Every time the radiator has been replaced with a new radiator. Most last about a week before cracking. The vehicle has never been in an accident. It is a RHD conversion.
